Month: April 2017

Bolabog Beach and White Beach are opposite of each other. At the narrowest point these beaches are not even 500 meters apart. Bolabog facing toward east, White Beach facing toward west. However, it seems, as if both beaches were located on two different islands.

Impressions from today, April 26, 2017

Bolagob Beach

It’s very hot today (35 °C). Even if a gentle breeze today offers a nice relief at Bolabog Beach, an umbrella is not a bad idea!The light breeze from east is still enough to keep a kite in the air.Aissatou Beach Resort (Habagat Kiteboarding) has the best location at Bolabog. They even have a nice garden inside where you can relax.

White Beach (today)

Because the White Beach lies lee side, there is hardly to feel any wind today. The south part of the beach is quiet free from algeas now. A lot of algeas are still in the middle part just at the height of the Regency Resort. But here at the south it is almost a perfect beach day, and look at these colors!

We don’t want to blame the algeas, do we? Although it is a fact that this phenomenon occures with the algeabloom on its peak. It is also known, that these kind of algeas divest oxygen from the water. So, is it maybe the lack of oxygen that drives these animals out of their habitat.

Right, the boats on the beach! How nice. No obstacle is blocking the way if you were out for a beach stroll. If you wanted to jogg the whole strech of the White Beach, especially during the 2 hours before sunset – Easter saturday was the day. A day for true beach lovers. Where were the felt a hundred thousand paraws lined up at Station 1 and from Paradise Garden Resort to Station 3? It was the Day-Off of all the water-sport-businesses.

Art by Nature? Isn’t that a contradiction? Either it’s art or it’s nature. It can not be otherwise. This is one way to define art, distinguish art from natural appearances. What is called artificial, can only be interpreted by man!

And then, the following finding in the waters of Bolabog, might be a balancing act between nature and man-art!

Time doesn’t matter for nature. What is a year or two, or even a hundred a thousand years? We don’t know how long this slipper was submerged in the waters of Bolabog and why the shells found it so attractive to settle on it.

It gives us a glimpse, of what nature is capable of and that after our short and devastating appearance on this planet, nature should handle our waste in a most original and tasteful manner!
